My Pink Stamper Blog Hop!

Welcome to the October Pinkalicious blog hop for My Pink Stamper! You should've arrived here from Roberta's fantastic blog Tx Scrapper Mom! This month we were to make a treat or goodie bag. I made an easy 'peek-a-boo' pumpkin bag filled with candy corn! I wanted to make something that would be quick and easy to make to give to my co-workers on Halloween (since they keep thinking I should bring them some of my cricut Angry Birds that I made for our work craft fair! See them in the blog post below).

Directions - to make the peek-a-boo bag, I used my gypsy and placed the small bag from Tags, Bags, Boxes and More on the mat. Then, using Gypsy Wanderings I placed a circle shape directly on the front panel of the bag (mine's a little off center but it doesn't show when the pumpkin is added). I then cut the bag out, and the cricut cut the circle shape.

I also cut one pumpkin out of black paper and one out of orange. The black pumpkin I positioned over the circle hole and adhered to the bag. And then I was able to use some foam squares to pop up the orange pumpkin to give it a little dimension. The tag is also from Gypsy Wanderings and then stamped with Enjoy from the Yummy-liciousstamp set by My Pink Stamper!

Your pumpkin treat bags are so cute and can I tell you how much I am in LOVE with your Angry Birds??!!! I love that game!! I want to make those so bad!!! They are incredible!! I'm wondering what you charge for those. I will PM you. XOXO, Julie. :0)
